"The Three Stooges" is Back on Track

"The Three Stooges" was another victim of MGM's financial troubles, but now comes word that 20th Century Fox is interested in the property and will begin production on March 14th.

While the plan is to keep the Farrrelly brothers (Dumb and Dumber) on board to direct, the original cast comprised of Sean Penn (as Larry), Jim Carrey (Curly) and Benicio Del Toro (as Moe) will likely change.

The Farrelly brothers made most of their movies for Fox, which is probably why the project landed there. The plan for the movie is to maintain the tone of the original show.
